I thought it was an IR conversion!

She's a beautiful girl with a very sweet smile!

Very nice images of a very attractive young lady whom you must be very proud of.  Very well composed.

But as we say in the USA about Donald Trump, "Oh that Hair!!!!!!!!!!!"

Thanks for posting

Re: "Dad take a picture of my new hair do...."

Lovely young lady and nicely posed images.

My only observationย is that you should pay more attention to post processing. There is a little disturbing something on the left side of the young lady's nose in one of the images. Must be some dust on the sensor..........ย  ย You should have fixed that flaw.

Please tell the young lady that she is beautiful without even wearing any jewellery............ย 

Best, AIKย

Re: "Dad take a picture of my new hair do...."

You have a beautiful daughter there with clearly bags of style! I love the pics of her but I think that if you had access to some plain white paper backdrops she'd be great fun to shoot in a studio context - the leaves are mildly distracting!

It's funny isn't it but youth is so incredibly precious and you don't realise how special it is until it's gone!  Even more incentive to capture it while it's in full bloom!  My daughter is going on 12 and gets more beautiful everyday.   Apart from the fact that I photograph her a lot she has access to ipads, iphones and digital photography that is in essence free so she takes masses of selfies etc too as do all her friends.  My wife and I don't have many great pics of ourselves when younger because film was so expensive you couldn't just fire away at will.  Both of us wish we'd had an able photographer on hand to capture those fleeting years when we were at our best before the 'peaches started sliding deeper into the clotted cream'!!

I do my best in Lightroom to mask the passing of time when I shoot my wife or myself but there's no denying it's much much easier to photograph someone like your daughter and mine!

Brg,

Re: "Dad take a picture of my new hair do...."

A very enjoyable set. Thanks for sharing.

I asked my 13 year old what she thought. First one looks like someone sixty years old trying to look younger and cool. Second one someone forty years old trying to look younger and cool. Don't mind her. We live in New Mexico, a real back water for fashion and style. I'm still trying to convince her that T-shirts with slogans aren't considered stylish.

Re: "Dad take a picture of my new hair do...."

Great photos, however i notice a colour shift between the shots in the colour of the sweater... perhaps you might want to look into unifying the WB in the photo series

Thank you Pentax forum and goodbye.

Thanks everyone.

You know what it is like taking shots of your grown up children. Its on their terms at a time and place of their choosing - or no photos!

So always a rush job.

Anyway I have enjoyed shooting with a lovely solid old fashioned DLSR again but have now decided its not for me and have sold all my Pentax gear.

Thank you for being a friendly forum!
